On a hot summer night, the refractive index of air is smallest near the ground and increases with height from the ground. When a light beam is directed horizontally, the Huygens' principle leads us to conclude that as it travels, the light beam :

Two coaxial solenoids of different radius carry current $$I$$ in the same direction. $$\overrightarrow {{F_1}} $$ be the magnetic force on the inner solenoid due to the outer one and $$\overrightarrow {{F_2}} $$ be the magnetic force on the outer solenoid due to the inner one. Then :

A rectangular loop of sides $$10$$ $$cm$$ and $$5$$ $$cm$$ carrying a current $$1$$ of $$12A$$ is placed in different orientations as shown in the figures below :

If there is a uniform magnetic field of $$0.3$$ $$T$$ in the positive $$z$$ direction, in which orientations the loop would be in $$(i)$$ stable equilibrium and $$(ii)$$ unstable equilibrium ?

Two stones are thrown up simultaneously from the edge of a cliff $$240$$ $$m$$ high with initial speed of $$10$$ $$m/s$$ and $$40$$ $$m/s$$ respectively. Which of the following graph best represents the time variation of relative position of the second stone with respect to the first ?

(Assume stones do not rebound after hitting the ground and neglect air resistance, take $$g = 10m/{s^2}$$)
